I'm currently just using TypeScript to write stuff that will all run in an Atom Shell app ... but this is like week 2 for me in TypeScript. (And I don't typically use Node or anything else in this ecosystem.)

It was beginning to be "this key is from intellij" , "this is from eclipse" , "this is from visual studio" ..... basically what I got stuck with over time. Decided I'll just go with VS default from now on :)

anyone done any work on the aurelia source? for pr or just to play? With all these explicit dependencies and jspm it's been impossible (for 4 hours now?) to convince jspm to source one of the aurelia packages from my local filesystem instead of from github.

I found a discussion of this very topic - authoring jspm packages/testing them locally and combined app/package dev with local packages. jspm link is the prefered solution, but it doesn't work on Windows. :-( I'll have to see if my Pi is up to compiling aurelia.

well, not really. in aurelia's dependency-injection repo, you define a static array in your class, and the di container will use that array as keys into the container to provide your constructor with the right constructor parameters

i want to allow class authors to use a decorator to pick up the declared types to automatically generate the static array
